Located in La Jolla. I'm trying out a bunch of classes as there is a new student special for $78…read moreunlimited for a month. Ask on the roof level to totem store. This is a yoga studio and vegan restaurant on roof top. So far I have taken these classes: aerial level 1, aerial level 1.5, Lyra hoop, yin, restorative, handstands, qi gong, and some of the yin classes come with mini sound healing session. I love all the classes. The parking is not bad on weekdays, and most parking is 2 hours, or Sunday is free. There is a skydeck aerial open to above, a dome on roof, moon room for infrared and yin/restorative type of classes, and earth room for higher level aerial and hoop classes. The ambiance is wonderful! Shoutout to all the wonderful teachers there especially Gabrielle, John, Carly, hannasita, Amy Thai! Great instruction and this studio has so much soul and focus on love and meditation.

I've been here once before and really enjoyed it, for multiple reasons. There is something charming…read moreabout the location. If you don't know what to look for, I feel like it's very easy to miss. The ambiance is very cozy, relaxed and inviting. There is generally something always on and patrons can sign up for, and attend whatever event is happening. First time I came here was quite some time ago, and unfortunately my food experience was better that first time. This time around, we got the Avocado Bruschetta, Plant Power Bowl (my dish), Miso Bowl (girlfriend's dish) and for dessert, the Decadence. Most things were good but I had the misfortune of getting the worst dish of the outing. I love tempeh, but did not get to enjoy it in this dish. It was dry and the flavor was lacking. The miso bowl however had superb, balanced flavor. I really enjoyed the dessert as well but it was very rich, and definitely decadent, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but splitting it is definitely the way to go if one lacks a sweet tooth, otherwise it can be a bit much. 3/5 stars. I would love to come back again and try something new. I know the experience can be better.

She has this awesome way of using every moment to relax and open up the body to get ready to work out, and the workout was really hard, but not too hard with lots of room to add more weight and resistance as I get...super strong n stuff:). To be honest, i'm usually in bed at 7:15am.... I am surprised I was able to pull off this class .... Dare I say I'm even impressed with myself hahaha. I'm for sure gonna go back I've never done that workout. I've only done Bikram with Genna and Coleen so I'm not surprised that I loved it. ALSO.... their Studio is... is the kind of place where a girl can rock a tank top for the first time after a double mastectomy and forget she just had ...a double mastectomy. Just easy to get outta my head over there ...and breath.

Riffs Bird Rock is hands down my favorite yoga studio in San Diego! (I have ClassPass, so I've…read morechecked out a lot of yoga studios. And I like this one so much I bought a class pack here.) Their Ocean Beach location is nice too, but really sets this one apart is its outdoor deck. I've always believed yoga is exponentially better when it's outdoors, and the vibes of this outdoor deck are immaculate. I love practicing in the shade under the coverings, among lots of plants and nice classmates (everyone I've encountered here is lovely). Every class I've been to here, from vinyasa to slow flow to hatha, has been basically perfect. Also, parking isn't too bad, and I love Bird Rock. My favorite thing is stopping by Calumet Park before or after class, since it's only a couple blocks away and offers a killer ocean view. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or you've never tried yoga before, I would definitely recommend checking out Riffs! It's both accessible for beginners and authentic for those who are more into yoga.

I've been here multiple times. Great studio, very clean and with an awesome vibe. I love being…read moreoutside and I especially love the area at the back of the yoga space where you aren't quite under the canopy and you can look up at the trees. I also love the little altar that they have set up on the steps in between the instructor and the deck where the students are practicing. They always have it decorated with seasonal items and it's so pretty. I really enjoy the instructors. Today was Asia and she always teaches such an engaging flow. I also enjoy the classes with the live music. What I'm not a big fan of is the wellness area they have set up behind the studio in the grassy area adjacent to the yoga deck. They do cold plunge out there during the class and to be honest, I find it distracting. During today's class there was someone in the cold plunge in the beginning, fortunately that person was very quiet, but I was aware that they were back there. There have been other times when I was there when there were people in the cold plunge and they were laughing and talking while the class was going on. I get it that the studio is in the heart of Bird Rock that there is other noise from the street, from the taco shop next-door, etc. But to have the distraction in the space you are practicing in is not ideal. When I checked in at the front, the girl who had me sign the waiver asked me if I was aware that they had a wellness area behind the studio. I told her yes, and that I was not a big fan of it. She told me that they are brainstorming ways to separate that area from the front of the studio more efficiently. Hopefully they come up with some solutions!

There are lockers for belongings and a water fountain as well. There is only one studio inside and they are located upstairs on the second floor with colorful changing lights that dim.

Amazing instructor!…read more I was coordinating a week for young women (ages 16-18) focused on healthy living, self-care, etc. and contacted Mandy to see if she would be available to lead our group of eighteen through a beginning yoga session and talk about how she became involved in yoga. She was wonderful! As requested, she began by talking about how and why she became a yogi and teacher. She did so in a manner that really engaged each of the girls and allowed us all to feel connected with her before she led us in a very peaceful, focused session. Afterward, she stayed to chat with us some more. Many of the girls want now want to attend her regular classes. Not only is Mandy an awesome instructor, but she is simply a lovely human being. She made each of the girls feel safe and supported so that our actual practice was amazing.

I feel so grateful that i was able to take classes and private sessions with Mandy…read more I am certainly not a typical yogi who lives and breathes yoga but i just might be now because of Mandy. I came to her with a hip injury (im an olympic athlete) and needed some way to constructively train so that my injury would heal and not happen again. Mandy immediately picked up on a lot of my problems and during our first session she showed me exactly why i need to make yoga part of my routine! I could go on and on about how wonderful she is but as you can see from the other reviews, her classes are truly such a wonderful experience. She is inspiring and so gifted at what she does. She is truly a beautiful soul. Start your yoga journey or enlighten it with Mandy, I promise you, something in her class will make it worth your while.

TLDR: lack of space, not a lot of classical Pilates moves baked in, deafening music…read more I think it's just ok. Didn't feel like much Pilates besides the side laying series, felt more like a HIIT boot camp. Like other reviewers have mentioned, it gets really packed inside. I think that might also explain why instructors aren't hands on with modifications -- it's just too crowded to fit in between people. The person to my left got their nasty a$$ foot sweat on me when we were all doing supine twist and did not give a damn. Music was obnoxiously loud, my ears were ringing after class. Instructor was sweet but noticed there weren't many modifications, lol the "NO ONE DROPS!!" cues don't really help someone doing a modified plank! Doesn't compare at all to Flexcore down the street. The eucalyptus towel was the saving grace, but personally, I wouldn't come back here again. At Flexcore, they give out towels while you're stretching so you don't have to swim in a crowd of people after.

The studio itself is super clean and aesthetic, and I loved wrapping up with a cool eucalyptus towel afterward. What a treat! The studio is in a wonderful location in Bird Rock - surrounded by different coffee shops and food spots, plus it's walking distance to Windansea Beach. It's a bit far from me, but I'd totally make my way back (:

I have only done yoga one other time in my life prior to our yoga on the beach session, but she made me feel confident in my form and abilities. I was in contact with Cathy a few months prior to our session - I booked her for my best friend's bachelorette weekend. This yoga session was a surprise to the bride and out of all of the activities we completed in San Diego that weekend, this yoga session was her favorite by far. Coordinating 10 women for a yoga session is not easy feat, but Cathy did just that. She is gracious and patient and super talented.
